Thiel's history with Gawker is irrelevant to whether the cause is noble. If the cause is noble, it's noble regardless of who is funding it and why. If funding cancer research is noble, it is still noble even if you became interested because you had cancer.
- ctulek 10y agoI didn't discuss whether the cause is noble or not. I discussed whether what Peter Thiel is doing noble or not. I don't find his action noble. In other words, that someone supports a noble cause does not make them noble, one should also check their intentions.
- dpark 10y agoYou literally said "noble cause" (well, "nobel cause").
